      Hi All,
 
I freshly installed MailScanner 4.50.5, spamassassin, clamav 0.88,
razor, pyzor, dcc and MailWatch 1.0.3. I also updated all perl
modules to the latest.
 
When I send a message, the MailScanner proccess stays is the
"MailScanner: finishing batch" state.


This sounds like it is failing to do the MailWatch database logging.

      I noticed that MailScanner dies after all the child processes
      have processed a batch. If I kill one of the child processes,
      the MailScanner master starts a new process thus indicating
      that something in the processing of the message
      batch prevents the child process of dying.


Are you sure you do not have "Debug = yes" in MailScanner.conf?

      Is there a way that I can check what might be causing this as
      I have checked the logs and done spamassassin lint test which
      produces no errors that indicate anything???
